[fibreC cladding panels]

The facade of a building is much more than a protective mantle.

It also lends a building its distinct appearance and identity and is

an essential component of architecture. The development of fibreC

was inspired by Rieder‘s vision of a concrete cladding panel that

is both stable and lightweight, able to withstand the effects of

weather and environmental conditions and at the same time sus-

tainable and aesthetic. fibreC – the name is an acronym of the words

“glassfibre“ and “concrete“ – is a glassfibre-reinforced concrete

panel that unites the advantages of both glassfibres and concrete.

Glassfibre-reinforced concrete is made of purely mineral raw

materials, which give the panels their unique characteristics. The

authentic appearance creates an vivid facade.

Die Fassade ist nicht nur die schützende Haut eines Gebäudes.

Sie gibt ihm gleichzeitig sein Erscheinungsbild und Identität und

ist daher elementarer Bestandteil von Architektur. Die Vision einer

dünnen und zugleich stabilen Fassadenplatte aus Beton, die

Umwelteinflüssen stand hält und dabei nachhaltig und ästhetisch

ist, prägte Rieder bei der Entwicklung von fibreC. fibreC (abgeleitet

von engl. „glassfibre“ und „concrete“) ist eine mit Glasfasern verstärk-

te Betonplatte, welche die Vorteile von Glasfasern und Beton in sich

ereint. Glasfaserbeton besteht aus mineralischen Rohstoffen, die

einen einzigartigen Materialcharakter erzeugen. Das authentische

Erscheinungsbild erzeugt eine Lebendigkeit an der Fassade.

[Concrete with character] [Beton mit Charakter]

Concrete is a natural product and Rieder sees it as such, with all

its vital signs and characteristics. Only natural raw materials are

used for the production of fibreC to ensure the authenticity of this

sustainable product. Lively surfaces with an interplay of colour

shades and light cloud effects, rather than dead and clinical sur-

faces are characteristic of fibreC and appeal to our senses. The

structure of fibreC, which is typical for concrete, gives the material

an unmistakable, honest character.

Beton besteht aus natürlichen Rohstoffen und wird von

Rieder auch als Naturprodukt verstanden. Deshalb wird bei der

Produktion von fibreC ebenfalls mit natürlichen Rohstoffen ge-

arbeitet, um die Authentizität des nachhaltigen Produktes zu

wahren. Lebendige Oberflächen mit einem Wechselspiel an Farb-

schattierungen und Wolkeneffekten anstatt toter Oberflächen

sind für fibreC charakteristisch und betonen die Sinnlichkeit des

Materials. Die betontypische Struktur verleiht dem Werkstoff

einen unverwechselbaren, ehrlichen Materialcharakter.

[Sustainable]

Concrete is a sustainable material suitable for leading-edge,

future-oriented architecture. This building material embodies

durability and stability of value. The ecological idea behind concrete

is consistently implemented in the manufacturing of fibreC. Unlike

other facade materials, such as fibre cement, aluminium or HPL,

the production of fibreC requires a low amount of primary energy,

which in turn minimizes CO2 emissions and the greenhouse effect

(source: IBO product test). fibreC consists of purely mineral raw

materials and is therefore completely recyclable.

Rieder pursues a holistic approach that covers the entire range

of sustainability and meets the high demands of ambitious

modern architecture. Many projects built and evaluated in accord-

ance with the international LEED© System (Leadership in Energy

& Environmental Design) have been awarded their LEED certificate

to a substantial extent thanks to their sustainable fibreC

facade. Rieder is committed to making an active contribution

to the energy turnaround through continuous research and further

development of its products and production processes.

[Nachhaltig]

In Bezug auf Nachhaltigkeit ist Beton ein wesentlicher Gestalter

der Zukunft. Der Baustoff steht für Dauerhaftigkeit und damit

Wertbeständigkeit. Diesen ökologischen Grundgedanken ver-

folgt Rieder auch bei der Fertigung von fibreC. Im Gegensatz

zu anderen Fassadenmaterialien wie Faserzement, Aluminium

oder HPL wird bei der Produktion von fibreC nur wenig

Primärenergie verbraucht, was sich wiederum auf eine niedrigere

CO2 Belastung und einen minimalen Treibhauseffekt auswirkt

(Quelle: IBO Produktprüfung). Da fibreC auf mineralischen Grund-

materialien basiert, ist der Werkstoff vollständig recyclebar.

Rieders holistischer Ansatz beleuchtet das gesamte Spektrum der

Nachhaltigkeit unter der Prämisse der anspruchsvollen Architektur.

Viele Projekte, die nach dem internationalen LEED© System

(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) bewertet wurden,

verdanken ihre Auszeichnung unter anderem der nachhaltigen

fibreC Fassade. Rieder vereint Funktionalität, Ästhetik und

Intelligenz an der Fassade und will durch kontinuierliche Forschung

und Weiterentwicklung der Produkte und Produktionsprozesse

einen aktiven Beitrag zur Energiewende leisten.

Kaum ein Material hat sich in der Wahrnehmung der Menschen in den letzten Jahren mehr gewandelt als der

von Le Corbusier als „Marmor der Moderne“ bezeichnete Baustoff Beton: Vom grauen Material der monotonen

Bausünden vergangener Jahre hin zum sinnlichen Material für Architekten und Planer auf der Suche nach purer

Ästhetik.

fibreC Glasfaserbeton hat viele Sprachen. Die Kombination derselben Farbe in unterschiedlicher Textur verleiht

der Fassade ein spannendes und lebendiges Farbspiel. Sonderfarben, Perforierungen, individuelle Formen und

dreidimensionale Elemente bieten ein weites Feld für die Kreativität der Planer. Je nach Wunsch bleibt die fibreC

Fassade dezent im Hintergrund oder verleiht der Architektur zusätzlich Stärke und Kontur.

Hardly any material has changed more in the public‘s perception in recent years than concrete, which was called

„marble of our time“ by Le Corbusier: from the grey material of past monotonous construction sins to a popular

material for architects and designers who strive for a pure aestheticism that appeals to the senses.

fibreC glassfibre-reinforced concrete speaks many languages. Facades with a stunning and lively play of colours

are achieved by using the same colour in different textures. Special colours, perforations, individual forms and

three-dimensional elements offer planners ample scope for creativity. Depending on the architect‘s preferences,

fibreC facades can remain discretetly in the background or add additional strength and contour to a building.

Für Planer ist die Fassadengestaltung wesentlich mehr als eine

architektonische Entwurfsaufgabe. Neben Ästhetik, Wirtschaftlich-

keit und Nachhaltigkeit spielt auch die Sicherheit der eingesetzten

Materialien und Bausysteme eine große Rolle. Durch die Brandschutz-

klasse A1 „nicht brennbar“ ist der Einsatz von fibreC umweltneutral,

da keine zusätzlichen Behandlungen und chemischen Beschichtun-

gen zum Brandschutz benötigt werden. Die Verwendung von fibreC

Platten in professionellen Brot- und Pizzaöfen und den damit ver-

bundenen strengen Prüfungen und Lebensmittelzertifikaten stellen

dem ökologischen Werkstoff fibreC ein Gesundheitszeugnis der

besonderen Art aus. Aus dem Low-tech-Material Beton der Vergan-

genheit ist durch fibreC ein High-tech-Baustoff geworden. Beton-

technologische Innovationen und Entwicklungen weisen den Weg in

eine neue, spannende Zukunft - in Richtung intelligente Fassaden.

For planners facade design is much more than an architectural task.

Apart from aspects like aesthetics, efficiency and sustainability,

they also have to take into account the safety of the materials and

building systems. fibreC meets the requirements of fire protec-

tion class A1 „noncombustible“ and is environmentally neutral, as

no additional treatment or chemical coatings are necessary for

fire protection. The well-tried use of fibreC panels in professional

bread and pizza ovens and the associated stringent tests and food

certificates give the ecological material fibreC an excellent health

certificate. fibreC has turned the low-tech material concrete of the

past into a high-tech building material for the future. Innovations and

developments in the field of concrete technology pave the way for a

new, exciting future - towards intelligent facades.

BOOKMARK\ o with two dots \ ö is a character used in several Latin alphabets. It represents the umlauted form of o \ the pronuncia-tion of ö is like “i“ in “Sir“ \ ö can be tran-scriped as “oe“ \ ö is a typical character of Austria \ The ö of Öko Skin stands for Österreich (Austria), ökologisch (eco-logical), ökonomisch (economical).

In many regions wood is an important design element of both

traditional and modern architecture. The main disadvantages of

wood are its high maintenance requirements and the fact that it

does not retain its attractive appearance in the long term, particularly

if the facade is strongly weather-exposed. Rieder Öko Skin offers

an ideal alternative: the slender glassfibre concrete panels neither

have to be sanded nor painted. Another substantial advantage over

wood is the fact that Öko Skin meets fire protection class A1 and

is noncombustible. Öko Skin allows Rieder to capture regions and

building types previously reserved to traditional building materials

such as wood. Öko Skin – as beautiful as wood, as sustainable as

concrete.

Holzverkleidungen prägen weltweit viele Regionen sowohl in der

traditionellen wie auch modernen Architektur. Leider bringen sie

vor allem an exponierten Fassaden viel Wartungsaufwand mit sich

und können ihre optischen Vorzüge oft nicht dauerhaft halten. Hier

bietet Öko Skin von Rieder eine beliebte Alternative: die schmalen

Paneele aus Glasfaserbeton müssen weder abgeschliffen noch ge-

strichen werden. Ein weiterer deutlicher Vorteil gegenüber Holz ist

die Brandschutzklasse A1 - nicht brennbar. Mit Öko Skin von Rieder

erobert Beton nun auch Regionen und Gebäudearten, die bisher

Baustoffen wie Holz vorbehalten waren. Öko Skin – Schön wie Holz,

nachhaltig wie Beton.
